Seahawks Sticking to the Plan with Zach Charbonnet

Monday, October 26, 9:25 AM

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) was recently activated from Injured Reserve but was ruled out of the team's Sunday night win over the Chiefs, and when asked about his status on Monday, head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters, "We are sticking with our plan," offering no update about his Week 8 availability. Charbonnet has not played since tearing his ACL in a Divisional Round win over the 49ers, and it remains to be seen what type of workload he will inherit upon his return. Seattle's first-round rookie Jadarian Price (chest) is also eligible to return after a four-game stint on Injured Reserve, and both could eventually find themselves in a timeshare with Emanuel Wilson, who topped 100 rushing yards for the first time on Sunday, while George Holani and Velus Jones Jr. add further uncertainty to a rushing attack that ranks 12th in the league through seven weeks.

Ollie Gordon II News

Ollie Gordon II Emerging as a Consistent Fantasy Producer

Wednesday, October 28, 12:08 PM

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II put together another strong performance in his team's Week 7 win over the New York Jets, recording 25 carries for 103 yards and a touchdown. Since star Dolphins back De'Von Achane (knee) suffered a season-ending injury in Week 3, Gordon II has become Miami's clear RB1. He's produced in the role, racking up 332 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 69 carries over his last four games. The overall offensive environment around Gordon II in Miami remains questionable, which may make it tough for him to sustain his current touchdown production. Still, Gordon II looks like a very safe bet to see 15-plus carries in most weeks and profiles as a low-end RB option for fantasy managers heading into Week 8.
